Serve Robotics, which delivers food for Uber Eats, provided footage filmed by at least one of its robots to the LAPD as evidence in a criminal case. The emails show the robots, which are a constant sight in the city, can be used for surveillance.

    Gosh, I didn’t think these devices came with a ‘how to destroy my own fleet of bots, the speedrun’ - pamphlet. But i guess they did :)

    No surprise. Same with Amazon’s experimental drone delivery robots and likely all the other automated delivery systems.
